About six million expatriates are eligible but a complicated maze of different rules in each of the 50 states, delays in obtaining absentee ballots and concerns about the mail have left many who are eager to vote still nervously waiting for ballots.

While some are making frantic calls to state voting offices or groups representing overseas Democrats or Republicans, others have decided the only solution is to fly to the United States.

"George W. Bush is not the right man for the job and that's why I'm paying to get on a plane to make sure I get over and vote," said B. Carter Looney, 39, a U.S. businessman who lives near Frankfurt.

"There's more to the world than just the United States," said Looney, who will spend 26 hours airborne for just three days in Arizona before returning on Tuesday after voting.

Expats are definitely on the losing end of Bush's (fuck you fereners) foreign policy. Guess who they want to vote for?
